finally a CUEMAKER that DELIVERS.

im so blown away with the craftsmanship .... i dont know what to say..... there is only one person on the planet that does work better than this.

ive been practicing (building cues) for almost 20yrs and someday i hope to nail it this good.

4pt hoppe with piloted ss joint and ivory ferrules , original cortland wrap and brazillian so deep it looks like ebony unless in the sun.

i believe the wait was around 1yr... need to double check.

after 8 playing cues this is the first that was ever made just for me:grin:

thanks and life is wonderful john l. showman

It looks killer hopefully you'll bring it so I can try it out.
Congratulations on your first custom cue!!!
Where are the fancy joint protectors??????
 
I'm gonna guess Mike Webb. The pointwork, the joint ring, and the 1 year wait make me think Mike Webb. But the half-joint seems Searing-ish. I'm probably way off though.

That must be the new pole Scott H was talking about making for you. Looks nice and simple. One of my favorite veneer combos! Maybe your game willl improve now that you have a decent cue :grin-square:

Nice cue. The shafts have the famous Showman ferulles and the Searing half joint, it must hit pretty solid. I would guess Randy Mobley.

Wow

That cue is sweet. I hope, if I am able to get another cue, that I can get one made just like that one. If only I could be so lucky.

What does a sweet piece like that run?

Hoppe Cue

" You're a funny Guy :grin-square: :grin-square: :grin-square:
" I was wondering what style of cue You would choose...
I heard that You sold Your fancy custom cue in Ga.
The Hoppe cue looks great,
"I've seen those short ferrules somewhere before :confused:
I hope all is well with You and Your family.
Thats a beautiful picture in Your Avatar :)
 
I have a guess

Points and joint look like Jerry R. That and the year wait, and the "delivers" statement point me to him.

I'm with you on this... This is a Mobley and I know how a Mobley hits. You got to fall in line boys/girls before the line gets too long. :grin-square:

I could be wrong though. ;)

The half joint makes me think 'S' too. But a 1 year wait??? :confused:

I'm stumped.

AS THEY SAY "MEMBERSHIP HAS IT'S PRIVLIGES"

JOHN IS A MEMBER OF THE "CUEMAKER CLUB" SO I'M SURE HIS WAIT IS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN STANDARD. WHICH TO ME IS UNDERSTANDABLE.

JOHN,
THAT IS SOME OF THE BEST BRAZILIAN I HAVE EVER SEEN.
